Age Quotes

I was very self-conscious about my body from a young age. At school, I played football and netball and did ballet as well so was very athletic. I wasn't curvaceous; I had muscles on my arms and shoulders. Often I felt like hiding them rather than showing them off, as I felt they were masculine.

I became an actor at a very young age, but I also had a deep respect for nature and I think I was sort of a little biologist when I was younger.

So, later in life I wanted to continue that path more and investigate and learn more about ecological issues.

People get to a certain age and success that they stop being curious. I'm still curious because I haven't really had that success. I've never done a record to catch whatever the latest sound is.
